Ayurveda is a Sanskrit term containing two terms i.e. Ayur (life) & Veda (science). Hence, Ayurveda is the science of life. Ayurveda teaches us to live healthily and happily. It is an ancient science that has become very popular in recent days for its harmless and effective removing treatment system straight from the root. Ayurveda believes that every person has a specific body-mind constitution so the diet and lifestyle we follow should fit our constitution. The herbs should also be selected in the same way so to harmonize the body’s energies (Doshas).

Ayurveda’s first focus is preventive then curative health, modern medical science (Allopath) does not work in preventive health. Ayurveda finds the root of the problem and recognizes three main doshas in the body which can be corrected by diet, herbs, Asanas, Pranayama and meditation. It has been called the mother of all healing because it instructs us on how to live in a true and natural way, balancing with our environment.

In Ayurveda, body, mind and consciousness work together in maintaining balance. This one week’s course introduces the way the body is working in relation to body, mind and consciousness. In this

Ayurveda introductory course you will learn how five elements and the three principle energies of the body plays its role to balance your whole system of body and mind. According to Ayurvedic philosophy the entire cosmos is interplay of the five energies space, Air, Fire, Water and Earth. Vata, Pitta and Kapha are combinations and permutations of these five elements that manifest as patterns in all creation. In the physical body, vata is the subtle energy of movement, pitta the energy of digestion and metabolism, and kapha the energy that forms the body’s structure.

Purpose of Ayurveda introductory course

Ayurveda has two main objectives; the 1st objective is to continue the state of health i.e. preventive approach. The 2nd objective is to treat the ailments when anyone get’s ill i.e. curative approach. To attain these objectives one should know about health (Swasthya) and cause of disease (Vyaadhi) with proper knowledge to restore the healthy state and balance. In Ayurveda, the state is considered as health only when there is harmonious balances in the 3 vital forces (Doshas) i.e. Vata, Pitta, Kapha. The increase and decrease of any Doshas are said to be the cause of diseases (Vyaadhi). Ayurveda has a peculiar system of examining the diseases and people with disease.

To restore the condition of health there is a holistic approach of treatment as Ayurveda focuses on Ahara (Diet), Vihara (Lifestyle) and Ausadha (medicines). Hence, Ayurveda is not merely a science of medicines or treatment but a “science of life”. This course helps us to know about our body-mind constitution by different evaluation techniques that Ayurveda doctors prescribe. Generally, Questionnaire filling, Pulse examination (Nadi Parikshaa) are some of the widely accepted techniques. We will learn about the daily schedule, seasonal regimen recommended by Ayurveda for healthy living, followed by different practical classes of Abhyanga (massage), Udhwartana (herb powder massage), Sirodhara etc.
